A Mobster's Guide to Cranberry Sauce by Beth Mathison

4.0

This is a light, funny short story about a mobster family at Thanksgiving. It is the first of several holiday stories that follow the same characters. In A Mobster's Guide to Cranberry Sauce, Beth Mathison, introduces a family of mobsters, and creates something of a "Guys and Dolls" style world, where the gangsters are more kooky than scary. Some family members suspect foul play at the dinner table. Escapades ensue and continue in the same vein in the subsequent stories. The next story in the series is A Mobster's Recipe for Cupcakes (a Valentine's Day story).
